Semua Bab She Moved On and Glowed Up — Now Her Ex-Husband and Son Want Her Forgiveness: Bab 261 - Bab 270

The delivery man scratched his head. “It was a black van. Looked a little old, but the windows were all covered with dark tint. You couldn’t see who was inside.”Eric jotted down every detail on his phone, his expression growing darker by the second. His pulse pounded with fury. There was no longer any doubt—this hadn’t been an accident. It was a calculated attempt on Nora’s life.He left the café in haste, his thoughts churning as he drove back to the hospital. Every face, every motive he could think of flashed through his mind, piecing together a web of possibilities.When he stepped through the hospital doors, he felt a sliver of relief seeing the bodyguards he’d stationed outside Room 302, alert and ready. At least she was safe—for now.Inside the room, Nora sat propped up on the bed, flipping through a magazine.When she heard the door open, her eyes lit up instantly. “You’re back. How did it go?”Eric walked quickly to her side and took her hand. “It was about the crash inv

Quinton could feel the tension in the room. He ran over to Eric and tugged at his hand, looking up with wide, tearful eyes. “Uncle, I just want to see my mom. Please… I just miss her.”Eric froze. The anger in his chest dulled as he looked at the boy’s innocent face. He took a steadying breath before turning to Travis.“She’s still very weak,” Eric said quietly but firmly. “Any emotional shock could hurt her recovery. If you truly care about her, then leave for her sake.”Travis’s jaw tightened. Conflict flickered across his face, his eyes drifting toward the doorway as if he could somehow see through it to Nora. His lips parted, but no words came out.Beside him, Quinton clung to his father’s sleeve, voice trembling. “But I really miss Mom…”Eric’s heart clenched at the sight. For a split second, sympathy stirred but the thought of Nora’s fragile state forced him to harden again.Travis crouched down and gently wiped the tears from his son’s cheeks. “It’s okay, buddy,” he said h

Eric let out a laugh at Travis’s words. “You feel bad? Have you ever thought about what you did to Nora?”He said it on purpose. He wanted Travis to know Nora could be fine without him.The bait worked. When Eric spoke, Travis’s eyes flashed cold with fury.“I’m talking to my child’s mother—what business is it of yours? Did Nora actually admit you’re her boyfriend?”“How dare he talk like he’s her boyfriend?” Travis thought angrily. And Nora—had she just accepted it? Quietly acknowledged it?She’d completely given up on their child and walked away? Even after he’d handed her Eric’s full background report, she’d acted like none of it mattered.Rage burned in Travis’s chest. In that moment he wanted to crush Nora and Eric both.Eric ignored the warning in Travis’s stare and kept going, slow and sharp. “I’m just speaking the truth. When you went off and licked another woman’s boots with your son in tow, did you ever stop to think about Nora’s feelings?”“Nora, you care about them,

Seeing the disdain in Travis’s eyes, Nora couldn’t help but purse her lips.Of course, she knew the person Travis was indirectly accusing was Eric. But so what? After the accident, the one who stayed by her side wasn’t Travis—it was Eric. He was the one who reached out when she was at her lowest.Still, the sharp look in Travis’s eyes made her fall silent. She pressed her fingers to her temples. Why did it feel like the memories she’d lost were so important?But she and Travis simply weren’t compatible anymore. No matter how much she’d once done for him—raising their child, managing their home—it didn’t matter. Look at them now. A few words in, and they were arguing again. She didn’t want that kind of toxic tension around her while she was still recovering.Some of the things he said did sound serious, but those could wait until after she healed.Turning slightly, she gestured toward their son. “You can’t let Quinton stay in such a noisy environment. You should take him ho

Gillian had no idea what kind of storm was coming. When she saw Eric’s name flash on her screen, her face lit up with delight.“Eric!” she chirped, eyes bright with surprise and excitement. “You finally called me. Don’t tell me you’re taking me out tonight or maybe showing me around your company?”Her playful tone only made the fury boiling in his chest harder to contain. Eric forced his voice into something calm, almost detached.“Gillian Lawson,” he said coldly. “Open the door.”She didn’t sense anything off about his tone. Still smiling, she replied, “The door’s already open, Eric! Just give me a second, I’m changing my shoes so we can go out.”She stepped into the foyer, adjusting her heels… and froze.Eric stood there, his face dark with restrained rage.“Gillian,” he said, his voice low and sharp, “was it you who sabotaged the car? The reason Nora ended up in that crash—was that you?”For a moment, she couldn’t even process the words. The smile faded from her lips. Panic
